"Lin Aiqing, hurry up and tell me in detail." Li Jing sat down again and spoke.

At this time, it was already dark, and Li Jing, the king of Qi, turned his head and instructed the eunuch to quickly send in a few simple meals. The eunuchs who had been waiting immediately brought in dishes of exquisite food.

Lin Feng got up slowly and said solemnly, "Holy Lord, King Qi, you must already know about the affairs of the Northern Han Kingdom, right?" ”

Li Jing immediately looked solemn, and he and Li Jingsui glanced at each other, staring straight at Lin Feng. Previously, Lin Feng had predicted that there would be great changes in the north. Now, the news from the north has fulfilled Lin Feng's prophecy, and Guo Wei's establishment on behalf of the Han Dynasty is already an inevitable fact, which is a major political test for the Southern Tang Dynasty itself.

"People have no foresight, but they must have near-term worries! In today's north, Guo Wei has become a general trend, and I am afraid that his ascension to the throne will also be a matter of time. This is the biggest crisis for me Datang! Lin Feng pointed to the north and said in a loud voice.

"What do you mean by that?" Li Jing was immediately shocked, and his face became more serious. Li Jingsui's face was even more frosty.

Lin Feng said in a deep voice: "Guo Wei has high prestige, heavy ambitions, strong strength of the Tianxiong Army, and generals like clouds, after ascending the throne, he will inevitably be angry and strong, and he will inevitably plot to attack the outside world. Objectively speaking, in the face of the Liao State in the north, they can only passively defend, the Shu State in the west, and Nanping in the south have geographical advantages to rely on. ”

"Perfection, think again. If Guo Wei is self-reliant, what should Liu Yun do? Liu Yun's father, the envoy of the Hedong Festival and the Zhongshu Order, how could Liu Chong give up? How will Xuzhou, where Liu Yun left, react? When the time comes, the north is only afraid that the external troubles have not been eliminated, and the internal worries will arise again, and it will not be able to care about external attacks for a while, right? Li Jingsui immediately raised objections.

"King Qi's analysis is very accurate and thorough! The minister admired. Lin Feng praised loudly. Li Jingsui's analysis is reasonable. In history, after Guo Wei ascended the throne, he soon killed Liu Yun, who was stranded in Songzhou (now Shangqiu, Henan), and his relatives Dong Yi and Jia Zhen. Liu Chong, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu and Zhongshu, declared himself independent on the day Guo Wei ascended the throne, and established the country as the Han Dynasty, known as the Northern Han Dynasty (951-979 AD), and united the Khitan with the Later Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty for nearly 30 years; Gong Tingmei, the capital of Liuyou, who was arranged by Liu Yun to stay in Xuzhou, and Yang Wen, the coach of Yuancong, also announced at the first time that they would not stand up with Guo Wei and vowed to avenge Liu Yun.

In fact, it was not until the thirteenth year of Baoda (955 AD) that the Later Zhou was able to draw troops and began to attack the southern Tang Huainan Jiangbei region. But now, because of the little wings instigated by his butterfly, the balance of strength in various parts of the world is quietly changing, who dares to guarantee that history will definitely move forward according to the original trajectory?

"King Qi, please forgive the ministers for analyzing the facts. The strength of Gong Tingmei, Yang Wen and others is too weak, even if they resist Guo Wei, they are only mantis arms blocking the car, and they are afraid that Guo Wei can fight with thousands of soldiers and horses; As for Liu Chong, Taiyuan, who guards the 'mountains and rivers on the surface', is already at an angle with the Liao State, in fact, no matter whether Liu Chong is against it or not, Taiyuan has never been within the scope of Guo Wei's power. In fact, Guo Wei had long been completely trapped by Liao Guo and Liu Chong in the north.

Imagine that if the news of the return of Chu to our country spreads, Guo Wei will not be unable to see that we have in fact become his biggest enemy in the south, and he will also be completely trapped in the south! The trapped beast will rise up and devour people, who will he choose? Needless to say, it must be us who have many weaknesses in his eyes, but have a lot of momentum! Lin Feng analyzed in a deep voice.

When the words came out, the excitement of the two bigwigs was immediately beaten, and they were all silent.

Lin Feng said loudly: "Long-distance friendship and close attack, common sense since ancient times!" Wei Chen suggested that Wei Chen, with the will of the Holy Lord, select a small number of elite troops to go north to Liao by boat now, and if there is an opportunity to visit Liu Chong again, encourage them to constantly attack Guo Wei from the north, so that Guo Wei has no time to look south, which greatly damages his strength. And we are immersed in accumulating strength, and under the advantages of one and the other, the one who retreats from him is Guo Wei day by day! ”

Li Jing and Li Jingsui shook their heads lightly together, the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Liao State have had many contacts since Li Yu was the emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, but the past history has told them a fact: the ethnic minorities in the north have always been greedy, and it is as easy as eating to break the contract, how can the Liao people easily obey the command of the Southern Tang Dynasty?

According to history, in May of the twelfth year of Tianxian (937 AD), on the eve of Wu in the Southern Tang Dynasty, Xu Zhihao, who had become the actual ruler of Yang Wu, "used the strategy of Song Qiqiu to tie up the Khitan to take China, and sent an envoy to repair it with beauties and treasures, and the Khitan lord also sent an envoy to report it." In August, envoys from the Southern Tang Dynasty arrived in the Khitan, and the Khitan soon sent Zhiligu to visit the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the two sides formally established a relationship of employment. Until the seventh year of the calendar (957 AD), the Southern Tang Dynasty sent an envoy to the Khitan. In these 21 years, the two sides exchanged a total of 41 times, of which 12 times were sent by the Khitan to the Southern Tang Dynasty and 29 times by the Southern Tang Dynasty to the Khitan Liao Dynasty.

However, to be honest, the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Khitan only had a short period of secret months, and in August of the first year of the meeting (938 AD), when the Khitan sent the Yan people Gao Ba to hire, "the Tang lord bribed him heavily, and sent people to Huaibei to kill him, wanting to use the Jin Dynasty", so as to prompt the Khitan to continue to strengthen the military operations of the Later Jin. This is the famous "Gaoba Incident" in history.

For the "Gaoba Incident", both the Khitan and the Southern Tang Dynasty were well aware, but neither side said anything about it, and still maintained contacts, but turned to economic and trade as the main form of expression, which is also the historical background of the Southern Tang Dynasty Situ Zhouzong to get rich in the world.

However, from February of the fifth year of Baoda (947 AD) to the seventh year of Yingli (957 AD), the Southern Tang Dynasty sent envoys to the north 16 times, but the Liao Dynasty sent envoys to the Southern Tang Dynasty only once. According to Lu You's "Book of the Southern Tang Dynasty", from beginning to end, "the Khitan is profitable", "the agreement to scratch the Central Plains is all vain, and it is impossible to help the Southern Tang Dynasty". In other words, the Khitan has always just taken the opportunity to "rub oil" on Nantang!

It is precisely because he has eaten the soft and hard nails of the Liao Dynasty that Li Jing will have such a performance, and he has no confidence in the Liao Dynasty at all. Li Jing pointed to the imperial meal on the table and motioned for Lin Feng to sit down and eat together, but to be honest, the three of them lost much appetite at the moment.

"Holy Lord, everything in the world is man-made! More than three months ago, we would never dare to imagine that the entire Chu State would submit to our dynasty? But now, this fact is in front of you! So, can we play with the Khitan in the palm of our hands, Weichen thinks it can! Lin Feng still swore without being shocked, and said loudly.

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Li Jing raised his head in surprise, looking at Lin Feng in disbelief, could it be that Lin Feng was going to make some amazing promises?

"The nature of the Liao people is brutal and brutal, which is determined by the characteristics of their steppe annihilation wars, which are either victory or death. Therefore, in their hearts, they look down on the Han people in the south at all, and always think that we are cowardly, and we are just grass valleys for them to plunder at any time! Lin Feng said loudly.

From the bottom of his heart, Lin Feng despised the Chinese nation very much Since ancient times, some high-ranking people have always wanted to send beauties and money to the north, and then call them "harmony" and "covenant", thinking that they can buy a moment of peace! But they have always refused to face an ironclad fact: the nomads in the north have never recognized any "unspoken rules" of "taking people softly and eating people with short mouths", and in their opinion, fists are reason! Cavalry is reason! Steel knives are the reason!

"Therefore, this time, Weichen is not going to bring any beauties and goods, only a few knives and dozens of people, to win back the respect that my Tang Dynasty should have, the equality that should have been, and to promote a political agreement with the Liao Dynasty to advance and retreat together!" Lin Feng said in a deep voice.

Li Jingsui stood up and asked suspiciously, "How many knives, the best can refer to the divine weapons we have smelted?" The best is not afraid of the exposure of secrets and strengthens the enemy? ”

Lin Feng smiled and said, "We only exchange weapons for northern horses and furs, and we will never teach them smelting methods. In addition, the minister also asked King Qi to have more confidence in our Academy of Sciences, and as soon as the real divine weapon is born, no matter how good the sword is, it will be all for nothing! ”

"So confident in the best?" Li Jing still couldn't believe it.

"The minister dares to make another military order!" Lin Feng said in a deep voice.

"No way!" No matter how dark Li Jing's belly is, he is embarrassed to put pressure on Lin Feng again, Lin Feng has just succeeded in plotting Chu, and there is no reward for this great merit, he said very kindly, "This matter will be discussed again between me and King Qi." Even if he goes north, he will not set any specific goals for Aiqing. Zhishan, now I can tell who bought Panlong, no matter who it is, I will never spare him! ”

Li Jing and Li Jingsui stared at Lin Feng together, waiting for him to give an answer.
